Legends of the Ancient World: The Life and Legacy of Nero , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 44min
What an artist dies with me! (Attributed to Nero just before his suicide) A lot of ink has been spilled covering the lives of history's most influential figures, but how much of the forest is lost for the trees? In Charles River Editors' Legends of the Ancient World series, listeners can get caught up to speed on the lives of antiquity's most important men and women in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known. Throughout the annals of history, there have been few figures as reviled as Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus, better known as Nero Claudius Caesar Drusus Germanicus, or more simply, Nero. Even today, he remains one of the Roman Empire's most famous - or notorious - figures, a villain whose impact on popular culture is so vast that his name crops up consistently, to this day, in literature, film, TV, and mediums as unlikely as video games and anime. Nero ranks among the very worst of the caesars, alongside the likes of mad Caligula, slothful Commodus, and paranoid Domitian. He is a figure so hated that in many ancient Christian traditions, he is literally - without hyperbole - considered the Antichrist; according to a notable Biblical scholar, the coming of the beast and the number 666 in the book of Revelation are references to Nero. He was the man who famously "fiddled while Rome burned". Nero was an inveterate lecher, a murderous tyrant who showed little compunction in murdering his mother, and he liked to use Christian martyrs as sources of illumination by burning them alive at night. His economic policies, according to many historians, virtually bankrupted Rome. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Doron Alon.

Caligula & Nero: Rome's Worst Emperors , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 99min
Given how bad some of Rome's emperors were, it's a testament to just how insane and reviled Caligula was that he is still remembered nearly 2,000 years later as the epitome of everything that could be wrong with a tyrant. The Romans had high hopes for him after he succeeded Tiberius in 37 AD, and by all accounts he was a noble and just ruler during his first few months in power. But after that, he suffered some sort of mysterious illness that apparently rendered him insane. Indeed, the list of Caligula's strange actions is long. Among other things, Caligula began appearing in public dressed as gods and goddesses, and his incest, sexual perversion, and thirst for blood were legendary at the time, difficult accomplishments considering Roman society was fairly accustomed to and tolerant of such things. In fact, the Romans were so taken aback by some of Caligula's behavior that historians catalogued some of his strangest antics. Suetonius wrote that as Caligula's relationship with the Senate deteriorated, he ordered that Incitatus be made a member of the Roman Senate and a Consul. Incitatus, Latin for "swift", was Caligula's favorite horse. But far from simply being a way to stick it to the Senate, Caligula invited guests to dine with Incitatus and had the horse's stables made of marble, suggesting Caligula was simply mentally unstable himself. Nero ranks among the very worst of the Caesars, alongside the likes of mad Caligula, slothful Commodus, and paranoid Domitian, a figure so hated that, in many ancient Christian traditions, he is literally considered the Antichrist. According to a notable Biblical scholar, the coming of the Beast and the number 666 in the Book of Revelation are references to Nero.
